Is everyone simply… guessing?

What’s working right now in B2B Marketing?

Business-to-business marketing (B2B) is a weird space. You’re probably just “winging it” at this point.

Should I blog? Create content? Start a podcast? Run ads?

Document my life on Instagram? Share stories about how cats are actually CEOS on LinkedIn? What about AI agents? AI is the hot thing now.

My gaawwwd.

Someone just tell me how to do this B2B marketing thing already.

That’s exactly what we’re doing. Making the hard work of inviting marketers who are consistently doing real, big things in the B2B space. And asking them to share their work generously – to a crowd of marketers and business owners.

So we can all get better.

And do better marketing.

INTRODUCING

Underdog B2B Marketing Con

Bringing the best marketing practitioners together to discuss and share their best-kept B2B marketing secrets.

A full-day of B2B marketing-focused case studies

We invite speakers to share real case studies, in the spirit of growing together. No fake numbers, untested marketing strategies or nonsense pulled out from a GPT prompt.

Oh, and no sales pitches at Underdog Con.

You’re bout to learn a whole lot of real stuff.

Like-minded crowd looking for growth

A crowd of do-ers, action takers and problem-solvers. (You thought we’d be saying hustlers, did you?). Underdog Con is for people who show up in service for others.

Network and do business with a crowd of driven marketers and business owners.

One thing’s for sure… You won’t find a crowd like this anywhere else.

Everyone leaves with something

A lesson, a new connection, business opportunity – or all three.

We designed Underdog Con as a space for marketers to learn and find opportunities. Because let’s face it. Everything you want is in the hands of someone you’ve not met yet.

Just take a look at what past participants say…

BRANDS SUPPORTING UNDERDOG CON

Wow… this is different.

We’ve received over 1,000 marketers and business owners at Underdog Con. Here’s what some of them say:

food underdog con

Did someone say, food?

If there’s one secret to making great events and a lesson to take away reading this landing page – it’s food.

See? I told you Underdog Con is about learning.

We provide the tastiest, most nourishing food you’ll ever find in a conference, keeping you energized througout the day. No need to hunt nearby cafes. Keep networking over great food. We got you.

Talk about staying focusssssed?

We like coffee like we like B2B marketing — strong, bold, and slightly addictive. That’s why Kee Nguyen (our sponsor!) is brewing up the good stuff at Underdog Con, so you stay focused throughout the day.

Find the answers to your deepest doubts

Cold calls, cold emails, SEO, ABM display ads, preview events, make TikToks, go live…. Skip the guesswork, trial-and-error and never-ending doom of B2B marketing. Instead, shortcut your marketing by learning it from others via proven case studies, and tried-and-tested strategies.

Meet the speakers

We’re bringing in real-world B2B marketing practitioners who have built and scaled. No fluff, no vague theories—just actionable insights from those in the trenches.

Will meals be provided?

Of course! Only the best meals served at Underdog Con.

Please let us know if you have any food allergies or preferences, when checking out.

Where is the conference venue?

The conference will be held at Xsolla Curine Academy in EcoCity KL. It’s a conducive space with plenty of space to network.
